I have no idea whatsoever of the formation we are playing. Cisse seems to be playing in a free role so does Anita, Sissoko and Marv too.

One of the darkest night in Corinthians history last night as Corinthians supporters fireworks killed a 14 year old bolivian at the game last night in Bolivia in a game for the Libertadores. How South America still hasn't been able to bring security levels towards European standards is beyond me.

There just isn't a need. Are we sure we won't see Shola on the wing? CISSE ON THE FUCKING WING MAN.

Completely agree on another note Messi only had one touch in the penalty area, keep the whole team at arms length superbly well and attacked with purpose when they could. It's hard to remember - off the top of my head at least - Barca being stifled as much as they were tonight. Yes, they have certain games where the opposition are hard to break down, sometimes very hard to break down, but they usually at least create a few good openings here and there. However, I can't remember a single decent opportunity for them tonight. Did Abbiati have a meaningful thing to do all game? Was his goal at any time in real danger? I'm being serious when I say Milan's performance should go down as one of the greatest performances in recent years, certainly of games I've seen anyway. They reduced the greatest team of our generation to nothingness, yet managed to deliver 2 clinical finishes of their own. Nope he could have sat in the stands, got his phone out and tweeted Boateng that his hair is s***. But seriously i can't remember Barca being stifled so much before either, against Chelsea they had a multitude of chances and even against Inter they had the chances. What it should also tell you is that not just anyone can manage this Barca side( was a ridiculous suggestion to begin with but last night proved it) as that assistant manager bloke looks clueless. at referring to the assistant manager as clueless. What did you want him to do? Milan had Barcelona by their balls and neither Messi, Iniesta or Xavi were able to create anything.

You sound like the analysts on Fox Soccer here. I didn't mean it as an insult. He said what they kinda said. You make everything sound like an insult, it's a gift from god, embrace it.

Even weirder when I was thinking for myself how come we haven't played them yet, just to go onto google and find out we did play them and it was in that fucking game we were so bad. Had actually forgotten all about that day...

Oh wow, me too. That's weird. Thought we were playing them down under... Can't believe we are actually playing at home this weekend. We must win this rather comfortably..

:lol:

How was Arteta not sent off is beyond me, one of the worst attempts for a tackle I've seen in a while.

No credit to be given since we don't know if Hatem wouldn't have come out blazing from the start had Pardew had the balls to play him early on.

Would love to see more English players playing for big teams abroad, think it would be beneficial to the national side too. Obviously the big problem is that most of our national side aren't good enough to play for big European teams! But someone like Wilshere could be a successor to Xavi in that Barca side IMO. Like they already don't have Iniesta, Fabregas, Thiago and Busquets to play. In my mind there's little doubt Wilshere would start ahead of Thiago. But still.

Aye, two seasons ago he scored 8 goals and had 10 assists in 24 games and the season before 9 and 14 in 31 games. Compare that to Ashley Young and you will see that he has definitely not been that bad.

Swansea getting bummed.

Should be back playing for the national team.

What a goal form Enrique. Suarez - Sturridge - Coutinho is going to be some shit.

Felip's anti-Argentina racism Not going to go

You must have gotten the whole point wrong since you ain't no CRonaldo lover.

Look at him now. Iniesta didn't pass him for his hattrick and ref blew the whistle and Messi didn't celebrate. Instead he walked straight into the net looking pissed. What happened to him? Haven't watched Barcelona consistently this season, but can't remember him being like that before except against Real and especially not to his teammates.

That's insane. But his goals are f***ing poo. How did that freekick even hit the back of the nets? What is that ? Goalkeeper is he 12? f***ing hell. Not like you to put the man down. Aye, I'm one of Messi's biggest fans, or were. Now he's just turned into a pure c***. See him mouthing off at Tello? Loved when he used to be the little humble guy who scored for fun, I guess that ever since the Clasico got really really intense he has changed attitude. I wouldn't say he's a c*nt but he's nowhere near as humble as the media portrays him or does he work nearly as hard in fact these days he works no harder than Ibra. None the less even if you do think he's a c*nt and that's aimed at anyone you can't argue with the performances. Has nothing to do with football as he is the world's greatest by a mile. Anyone who thinks there's even a debate of who is the best in the world right now is delusional. However, he is like you said nowhere near the humble kid he once were, and I don't agree that he doesn't work harder than Ibra. Both of them works hard in different ways.

Agreed. Never understood wanting to keep him around simply because he's been their most successful manager. If the guy's not winning anymore, cut him loose. They sold all the generation that was meant to take them up to the top but he had still been developing brilliant talent. He's not really the problem, lack of investment is. First time I agree with this miserable guy. Arsenal doesn't have the financial resources of the Manchesters (few teams in the world do). But they've still been able to attract high-quality, high-priced players over the years. Recently, Cazorla, Podolski, Monreal, Gervinho, Giroud, etc. Only a handful of PL teams have the funds to sign players like this. There's still no excuse for a team this talented to go trophy-less for 7-8 years. Man you answered your own question. They don't have the financial resources of the teams winning the titles. Simple as that. Buying Cazorla, Podolski, Monreal, Giroud came at prices of selling Cesc, RVP etc. Their net spend might be high but it's a well known fact that they can't spend as much as Manchesters and Chelsea and therefore will be 4th-5th.
